[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the the distinction between introvert and extrovert is complete BS[/quote]

Probably, but some people still use it as an excuse to be lazy and rude. It is not introversion, it is extreme anxiety and depression on their part - if they think that saying hello or whatever "exerts too much energy" - then, they have a serious mental problem.

My SIL is always about "what takes energy" -  everything is taxing to her (everything) - it i a wonder she can tie her own shoes. Which wouldn't be so bad, if she would get some help, which she can more than afford.  Instead, she inflicts her BS on other people. She is retired early after working part time from home (!!!!!!), empty nest, but still can't function. I'm not making light of it, just saying she really needs help - but the people she might ask about it (MIL) are in the same boat, along with denial, sadly.

They have been this way since I have known them, and it was really perplexing at first, but now it is just what we expect. All that matters is her, apparently. I had never known someone like that before, and it is really eye opening. I give their spouses TONS of credit. When people just seem to take and not give, and are also in denial, it is hard to have or want a relationship with them. [/quote]
